Good morning, hunters! Capcom has released some new information and a new demo for Monster Hunter Wilds. Alongside revealing new product options and announcing the Monster Hunter Wilds Championship. The Global Exhibition is dropping in September 2026, and as most of you know, Monster Hunter Wilds is crossplay through PlayStation 5, Xbox Series systems, and PC via Steam.
The Forbidden Lands Calls You:
For those of you who have not checked out Monster Hunter Wilds can partake in the new demo. Experience the opening hours of the game in Offline Mode, with full access to character creation, all 14 weapon types, and story content up to the beginning of Chapter 1-3 “To the Forest.” The best part is that if players do decide to continue the hunt, they can seamlessly transfer into the full game where their save data merges with the game. It’s available right now, so grab your palico and go hunt! Well, after this last bit of information of course.
New Product Options
Starting today, Capcom is introducing new options for hunters looking to experience Monster Hunter Wilds and all its additional content and introducing a new permanent price reduction to MSRP $39.99. The new Monster Hunter Wilds bundle options are listed below and will include all premium bonuses from previously existing options.
- Monster Hunter Wilds Gold Edition (MSRP $79.99): A bundle of the full game and the Monster Hunter Wilds Cosmetic DLC Collection
- Monster Hunter Wilds Cosmetic DLC Collection (MSRP $59.99): Bundle of 10 DLC packs that includes the Monster Hunter Wilds Extras Cosmetic DLC Pack
- Monster Hunter Wilds Extras Cosmetic DLC Pack (MSRP $29.99): Bundle of paid cosmetic DLC that were previously only available as standalone products
The introduction of these new options coincides with sunsetting the previous Monster Hunter Wilds Deluxe Edition, Premium Deluxe Edition, and Cosmetic DLC Pass bundles. Hunters who have previously obtained these products may continue to use them, and individual DLC packs and items will still be available as separate products.
Expedition Results:
The Gathering Hub is going to be popping off. The Monster Hunter Wilds Championship – Global Exhibition is officially coming in September 2026! After advancing through regional tournaments in Japan, the United States, Europe, and Taiwan, the top four hunting duos in the world will gather to compete for themselves and their region. The new Challenge Quests “Event: Dreams May Soar” and “Event: Unchained Arkveld” are now available from the Quest Counter for hunters looking to hone their skills and compare their best times with the Championship teams. Please stay tuned for more information on timing and location at a later date.
I am going to get the Xbox version this time around as I put my PS5 away in protest; that’s just my thing. It would be nice if Monster Hunter Wilds had cross-progression, but that’s okay. The best news so far is Monster Hunter Wilds is currently in development for the Nintendo Switch 2. Hopefully it will be out in time for the expansion Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendance, which will be released in 2027.
